♥HELP♥ Pillow? OR Blanket? That's the question....

Eben noch lachst du mich an
Strahlst noch wie das hellste Licht
Plötzlich Dunkelheit und Kälte
Der Schmerz zerfrisst mich innerlich...

Hey sweethearts...
In July my cousin and his fiancee gonna get married.
I am not able to go there to that date they choose. cat_cry

Now I want to make them a hand- and heartmade gift and not only send a letter with money, as they asked for.
But I am not sure if I shall make them a pillow with the date of marriage
or if I may knit that blanket.

Pillow
Blanket

The pillow I would make like it is shown. I only would add the date underneath the trees.

Well, the blanket I would work in stockinette except the border and also would add the date underneath.
Maybe the first letter from thier first name in the upper left and right corner. So one corner for each name...

What do you think?

In der kalten Asche suche ich nach Deinen Spuren
Habe Dich verloren!

Liebe auf den ersten Blick,
auf den letzten Blick.
Auf jeden Blick, Dolly.

Hello there... smile
Marriage was last saturday. Sadly I wasn't able to go there by myselfe but my mother brough them my gift....
Well what shall I say... I didn't have enough time for a blanket because of some issues I had, so I made a pillow. 50x50cm ...
I'd try to stitch on the date and initials but it didn't look good, so I made a card with a poem about holding together like these two trees and drew a celtic life-tree next to it.

Here you go:





Didn't have a response of them until now, but I'll let you know what they think about it smile

Ich wollte dich töten, doch es ging nicht.
Ich liebte dich.
Es ging nicht, es ging nicht gut.
